Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

couldn’t open it since I am work. Is it the 1999 WC pool match?

Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

^ You should watch it when you go home fkhan....I bet you will love it. Yes I think its that 99 WC where Rudi was the umpire and Steve was clear plumb but Rudi did not gave him out due to the fact Shoaib was messing with Steve Wauh.

Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

still remember the game. We were so mad when he was not given the LBW. However it was so sweet when Waugh was clean bowled by Akhtar

This is from cricinfo live commentary of Shoaib LBW appeal

32.6 Shoaib Akhtar to SR Waugh, no run, amazing inswinger, at that pace,
into the pads in line with off stump, looks plumb as can be, but
Koertzen doesn't think so

Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

Pa jee thats what I was trying to avoid to type but you still typed it :) The clean bowled part...cuz its more fun to watch if you don't know what happen in the end :D

Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

Here’s another one from youtube. This time Wauh has to listen to Khan sahib…I never saw this part maybe missed it some how…any way here it is. Watch how Akram reacted “ghooryaN at Steve Waugh” after Khan sahib’s comment.

Rudi Pahncho...

Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

Who else but Rudi Koertzen of course.

That was some awesome bowling from Shoaib... fast and furious, and swinging like it's the seventies!!

Also notice how clean Shoaib's action was.. no hint of a bend in the elbow, even in replays.

Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

It was one of the best Pakistan matches. If you have a copy of the full match, watch Shoaib Akhtar's second spell. During that spell, Shoaib was walking back to his run up, and Michael Bevan was in his way (near the non-striker's end). Shoaib just pushed him out of his way and Micheal Bevan looked at him in disbelief and said, "couldn't you say excuse me?" Shoaib replied, "F*** off" right in his face and kept walking back. Bevan was shocked even more and looked at the empire hoping that he might have heard it, but apparently he hadn't (I was difficult to hear, but if you read their lips, you can clearly make out what was said).

Aboslutely loved it!!! :biggthumb

Re: Shoaib Akhtar against Steve Wauh

suprised you have never seen it before. Anyway khan sahib got him out ct behind in that crucial WC’92 match. While he was walking back, Aamir Sohail said something to him, Waugh stopped to respond. For 2-3 seconds no one from the Pakistan team noticed that Waugh has stopped and is looking back furiously. Khan Sahib was the first one to notice him and told him to relax and calm down. You can see Akram Ghorifying Waugh. Right next to Akram is Sohail :hehe:

That was not it. Later in the match Whitney and Moin Khan got involved in a verbal altercation after a caught behind appeal against Whitney was not given.
